Worker's Compensation Cases
Treatment of the injured worker is a particular specialty of medicine. In addition to the basic scientific treatment of injuries, there are a lot of other factors that go into treating an injured worker such as
- Understanding the nature of the injury and how it relates to the person's employment
- Comprehension of the legal system and worker's compensation law in Michigan
- Appropriate release back to work guidelines and restrictions
- Prompt production of paperwork necessary in the process
- Excellent communication with the patient, nurse case manager, employer, and insurance adjusters.
